The 10-year anniversary of the Neurology Resident & Fellow Section: 2004-2014
Neurology recent issues

Over the past 10 years, the Neurology® Resident & Fellow Section (RFS) has served as an outlet for articles and other journal-related activities relevant to trainees. The RFS was founded in 2004 by Drs. Karen Johnston and Robert Griggs with a focus on academic topics such as training, practice, ethics, teaching, and international training experiences.1 The initial goals were met and superseded as subsections have gradually evolved to cover current areas, including Emerging Subspecialties in Neurology, Clinical Reasoning, Right Brain, Child Neurology, Pearls & Oy-sters, International Issues, Education Research and Initiatives, Teaching NeuroImages (including both static images and videos), and Media and Book Reviews. In addition, submissions have grown in number and quality from 12 in 2004 to 481 in 2013, with a current acceptance rate at approximately 30% (figure). A full listing of the different subsections and other activities of the RFS can be found at http://www.neurology.org/site/feature/index.xhtml. Two excellent examples of articles from the RFS can be found in this issue of Neurology.
